Killing Moon Kickstarter graphic novel

[Bhuna]

So, here we go guys - It's news time!!

It's literally taken over 35 years since my brother first drew a character called Moses Valentine to where we are today!

As some of you may know, over the last 5 years, myself,  and forum members Chris Denton (writer), Darren Stephens (colours) and Bolt-01 (lettering), with editorial help from Richmond Clements have produced the award nominated comic called Killing Moon.

We are going the bring all 4 issues together as a 116 page graphic novel which will include a new 4 page prequel story and the reprinting of Marks original two episodes and other artwork which haven't seen the light of day since 1985!

This will be via Kickstarter which will mean if we don't reach our target, the project won't, so this is where you guys come into place!

The project will be launched in July and rewards include original artwork commissions, t-shirts, sketches with original stunning original artwork from Neil McClements and Alex Mines. The graphic novel and rewards will be delivered in November.

Please register your interest here!

Well yesterday was a bit bonkers!

We launched as planned at 9.00am and by just past 11.00am the funding target was reached and we have just hit the £1500 mark so the first stretch goal will be kicking in.

I've spoken to an art droid who has kindly offered to support the project, but its all a bit hush hush at the moment but be announcing more details as the next stretch goal is reached.

If you've back the project, thank you so so much for your support. If you haven't yet, you know what you need to do

I've seen the pencils and they are absolutely outstanding. How he's not working for Tharg is beyond me.

Well, we received an absolutely stunner of an illustration from art droid Patrick Goddard this afternoon.

This will be given to everyone who pledges a physical copy of the Killing moon graphic novel via Kickstarter along with SKD's wonderful illustration as two quality A4 prints.

I'll be posting it on the Kickstarter update page tomorrow morning.

Quick update guys (plus I forgot how to insert an image on the forum haha)

How stunning are these!!
Stretch Goal Three artwork by SKD - Rewarded as a quality A4 print. This stretch goal has been unlocked!


Stretch Goal Four artwork by art droid Patrick Goddard- Rewarded as a quality A4 print when stretch goal in reached. It's actually only about £50 away from unlocking the stretch goal.


So for the 'Blue Moon' reward which is only £15.00 plus p&p, you get the printed copy of the 116 page full colour Killing Moon graphic novel PLUS the A4 prints from SKD and Patrick Goddard.
That to me sounds like a bit of a bargain!!
